    Not much to report. Made just one trade today that resulted in a loss of 3 points or $150. In hindsight, it was one of those dumber-than-dumb trades that should have never surfaced.

  5. So if cumulative is for this month and 1 contract per point, you made $ 5,162.50 this month. I would say ave of 5 trades per day traded. Also, looks like around 2 to 1 ave win to loss ratio and 46% win ratio.

    Good morning. I am short 1918, target is 1904, stop loss is 1920.25. A good week to you Schizo and all.


    EDIT: Long 20.25, targets 1933 & 1943, stop 15.50
    EDIT: So now -7 and still thinking 1904 down or 1933 up will be seen ... time to take my focus
